Flashback Love Song - "Loving You" by Minnie Riperton

Perhaps the sweetest love song ever written and recorded, "Loving You" by Minnie Riperton which went all the way to #1 in 1975. Minnie's voice featured a 5 octave range, the beautiful melody and real chirping birds in the background all helped make "Loving You" stand out as a timeless classic. Sadly, Minnie was diagnosed with breast cancer shortly after releasing "Loving You" and passed just a few years later in 1979. She was one of many talented artists that passed on way way before there time. If its been a while or perhaps you've never heard "Loving You" I invite you to listen here: "Loving You" by Minnie Riperton (YouTube)
